Preparing for Fast 20/20 Pt.3 "Lets Do This"

Sunday, January 5, 2020

Today is going to be more informational than revelational. That doesn’t mean that Holy Spirit isn't going to reveal or teach of anything, it just means the focus today is to finish laying the groundwork, structure, etc… for the 21 day corporate fast. Some of this will be review, some clarification and new information. 

Preparation time is never wasted time!

    • “The fast is going to be a building on last year’s fast. Last year was preparation and plowing, this year is freedom and expression. The two will compliment each other.”

      • Make prayer and worship a priority. Both private and corporate! 

      1. Praying/Worshiping in the Spirit.
      2. Prayer app. 
      3. Corporate prayer and worship. (Wed, Fri and Sunday’s).
          • Jan 8th, 15th, 22nd (Wednesday’s) Prayer and live worship. (Tony, Amanda, Gretchen)
            • These are important times together. I believe The Holy Spirit will use individuals to minister to others. I believe some of your greatest revelations, encounters and breakthroughs will come during these times. 
            • Jan 10th and 17th the church will be open for prayer from 6-8. We will use a playlist for this time. Come and go whenever.
            • Friday, Jan 24th; prophetic worship service (full worship team). We will open this to people outside of our church family like before. )No kids ministry, so that teachers can attend. People can bring their kids if they would like or they will have plenty of time to find a sitter.)
              • This is going to be a POWERFUL time!
                1. Ignite devotional & Jentezen Franklin 21 day devotional, “Open My Eyes”.
                2. Prayer focus; 
                    • Breakthrough. 
                    • Revival.
                    • Building/Expansion.
                    • Guatemala.
                      1. Fasting resources; jentezenfranklin.org

                        2. Perspective, expectation, and Attitude. 

                        Matthew 6:16-18 TPT 16 “When you fast, don’t look like those who pretend to be spiritual. They want everyone to know they’re fasting, so they appear in public looking miserable, gloomy, and disheveled. Believe me, they’ve already received their reward in full. 17–18 When you fast, don’t let it be obvious, but instead, wash your face and groom yourself and realize that your Father in the secret place is the one who is watching all that you do in secret and will continue to reward you openly.”

                        Perspective

                          • “Perspective is everything!” Jentezen Franklin.
                          • Your perspective will determine your response and what you can receive.
                          • What is your perspective going into this fast? Are you seeing it was a physical thing or a spiritual thing? 
                          • Although this is a physical act, it is much, much more a spiritual process! 
                          • Remember, we are not trying to force God to do something, we are fasting to align our perspective with what He has already done! 

                            • Expectation 

                              • EXPECT REWARD.
                              • Expect to hear God’s voice in the Word, dreams, visions, and revelations!
                              • Expect greater intimacy with The Father!
                              • Expect Breakthrough!
                              • Expect a release of the supernatural!
                              • Expect faith and power to increase!
                              • Expect Clarity! 

                                • Attitude

                                  • Attitude is something Holy Spirit has really been speaking to me about concerning my personal approach to this fast. 
                                  • I can not control how my body reacts naturally to the fast, but I am 100% responsible and in control of my attitude during the fast! 
                                  • My attitude toward the fast, toward myself and toward people around me. 
                                  • Do not allow what you are experiencing physically to dictate your attitude. 
                                  • Let your faith determine your attitude! 
                                  • Stay positive! Choose your words carefully! Not just the words you speak externally, but the words you speak internally. 
                                  • Focus on speaking and praying the Word. Declaring the Word. 

                                    • THERE IS A GRACE TO FAST! CHOOSE TO WALK IN AN RELY ON IT!
